Area forecast discussion, Feb 12, 7:40 PM PST, 6 hours 59 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Las Vegas NV 740 PM PST Sat Feb 12 2022 .SYNOPSIS...Clear skies and unseasonably warm temperatures will continue across the area through Monday before a pattern shift brings a storm system to the area with strong winds, a drop in temperatures, and a chance of light precipitation. Dry, but seasonal weather is expected late in the week. && .UPDATE...Clear skies dominate the region again tonight with a high pressure ridge firmly anchored over the West Coast. Some minor cooling below 700mb today cost our afternoon highs a few degrees from their record or near record levels on Friday, but still topped out 10-12 degrees above seasonal average. Similar conditions in store for Sunday with generally light winds and mild temps. The current forecast is in good shape with no update planned this evening. -Outler- && .SHORT TERM...Tonight through Monday. Expect pleasant, comfortable weather through Monday with well above normal temperatures continuing. Light winds will continue across the area through Monday morning before a strong storm system drops out of the Gulf of Alaska and approaches our area. This will result in an increase in southwest winds across parts of our area Monday afternoon. .LONG TERM...Tuesday through Saturday. The aforementioned storm system is forecast to drop in over our area on Tuesday with an associated potent cold front passing through the area. Both pre-frontal and post frontal winds are expected to be strong enough that it will likely require wind hazard headlines to be issued for Tuesday. Widespread advisory level winds are possible with some potential for more localized warning level winds Tuesday into Tuesday night. Clouds are forecast to increase from north to south on Tuesday with mainly light shower activity developing across parts of the area, especially along the cold front. Currently, the areas with the best chance for precipitation looks like Lincoln County and northern Mohave County but we could also see a couple of inches of snow in the Spring Mountains. Expect Tuesday to be 10-15 degrees cooler which will bring us more in-line with seasonal normals. The system is forecast to be east of the area by Wednesday afternoon with lighter winds forecast as the gradient relaxes. Models bring a minor reinforcing shortwave out of Canada that passes through our eastern areas late in the day on Wednesday. This could enhance the northerly winds along the Colorado River Valley on Thursday. High pressure is forecast off the west coast late in the week, keeping the pattern favorable for upstream systems to bring unsettled weather into the Desert Southwest. && .AVIATION...For Harry Reid...Quiet weather will continue through Monday. Winds will begin to turn more southerly and increase Monday night. The strongest winds are expected Tuesday, with southwest winds gusting 30 to 35 knots before shifting to northwest with gusts of 20 to 30 knots behind a cold front Tuesday afternoon. There will also be a slight chance of lower ceilings and a light shower Tuesday as the front passes. For the rest of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast California...Northerly winds gusting 20 to 30 knots in the Colorado River Valley will subside this evening, with lighter winds expected Sunday. Elsewhere, quiet weather will continue through Sunday night. Southwest winds will begin to increase Monday, and a cold front will pass through the region from north to south Tuesday and Tuesday night. Southwest winds gusting 30 to 40 knots can be expected over much of the Mojave Desert before shifting to northwest behind the front. The strongest northwest winds could gust as high as 50 to 60 knots along the CA/NV border east of the White Mountains. There will also be a risk of lower ceilings and light showers with terrain obscuration as the front passes. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather or impacts according to standard operating procedures. && DISCUSSION...Salmen AVIATION...Morgan For more forecast information...see us on our webpage: https://weather.gov/lasvegas or follow us on Facebook and Twitter
